Following two disappointing seasons with the Denver Broncos, there’s a widespread expectation that Russell Wilson, the seasoned quarterback, will probably seek a new team for the 2024 season.
Hence, it’s not unexpected that Wilson has put his Colorado residence on the market recently.
Reported by the Denver Post, Wilson and his wife Ciara have been showing prospective buyers around their property over the past few weeks. They originally purchased the home for $25 million less than three years ago (via Ari Meirov on Twitter).
Russell Wilson and his wife Ciara are accepting offers for their Denver mansion and providing tours to prospective buyers, per @denverpost. The couple paid $25 million for the 20,000-square-foot home when he was traded to Denver, setting a record price for the area.

Before the 2023 season kicked off, the Broncos brought in Sean Payton as their new head coach, hoping his successful history with Drew Brees at the New Orleans Saints could translate to success with Russell Wilson.
However, the outcome on the field for the veteran quarterback didn’t mirror expectations. Despite Wilson’s decent statistics—completing 66.4% of his passes, averaging 204.7 passing yards per game, throwing 26 touchdowns and only eight interceptions, and boasting a 98.0 quarterback rating in 15 starts—the Broncos surprisingly benched him with two games remaining in the regular season.
This decision, though unexpected given Wilson’s performance, likely hinted at the beginning of the end of his time in Denver.
While there’s a chance for developments in the coming weeks, all signs still suggest that the former Super Bowl champion will be playing for a team other than the Broncos next season.
